Neurotic to a Tea: March 2014
http://neurotictoatea.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 2, 2014. However, Lara and I debated about what we should make next. I pitched her the idea of a drop leaf table (also known as a Pembroke table. That would be small enough for four and big enough for two to eat breakfast on. Her eyes lit up over that. So as of right now, I'm waiting on receipt of 30 bf of soft maple to get started on my next project. Posted by Howard Newell. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Hurry Up and Wait.

Neurotic to a Tea: It's That Time of Year Again
http://neurotictoatea.blogspot.com/2014/08/its-that-time-of-year-again.html
Thursday, August 21, 2014. It's That Time of Year Again. So what does this mean? Nothing, really. Just that Hornady SST bullets are very favorable to my gun for whatever reason and they're effective. Just looking on the internet for a particular brand of ammo will yield two camps, those that state "I was able to group 10 shots within a gnat's hair at 500 yards" and those that rebut "the results of this ammo make me thing my rifle sneezed all its bullets out over the target.".

Neurotic to a Tea: May 2014
http://neurotictoatea.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 13, 2014. The great thing about using these wild wood cherry pieces is that it stands out for the drawer fronts. Grain that twists and dives in an undulating pattern, pieces that have large bullseye patterns in corners where a branch had started growing. The problem is that this figure doesn't lend very well to structural integrity. That wasn't thick enough. Tomorrow I'll cut the drawer bottoms and get everything fitted. Posted by Howard Newell.

Hurry Up and Wait. The Life and Adventures of a book-loving, (slightly) workaholic, nerdtastic foodie. Wednesday, July 18, 2012. I'm copying this from my friend Justine. And her blog (I think it is actually from another blog but.I am lazy.). How long have you been blogging? And what got you started on blogging? Has your blog changed? 2 Did you go to college? If so where, and what did you study? 3 Where have you traveled? 4 If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you. Wine, beer, or liquor.

Hurry Up and Wait. The Life and Adventures of a book-loving, (slightly) workaholic, nerdtastic foodie. Sunday, March 18, 2012. Inspired by Little Stories. When someone asked G.K. Chesterton what one book he would want to have along if stranded on a desert island, he paused only an instant before replying, 'Why, A Practical Guide to Shipbuilding. Of course'". -Philip Yancey, from the introduction to G.K. Chesterton's Orthodoxy. And Reepicheep. I'd really want Reepicheep. 4) Me Talk Pretty One Day. Really ...

Neurotic to a Tea: Sideboard finished
http://neurotictoatea.blogspot.com/2014/07/sideboard-finished.html
Tuesday, July 1, 2014. I debated about refinishing the top. Although I had French polished it, I hadn't done quite enough bodying sessions, and the shellac had shrunk back into the pores which also highlighted low spots in the top. This set it apart from the high gloss drawer fronts, and not for the better. Over time I expect it to acquire a more semi-gloss look after dishes and plates slowly scratch the surface.

Neurotic to a Tea: January 2015
http://neurotictoatea.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 2, 2015. It's So Nice When it Happens Good. The only thing left to do for most of the projects are to finish them with shellac, which I'll do on a warm day, but considering how smoothly most of the projects came together, I don't anticipate any hiccups during it. It's so nice when it happens good. Posted by Howard Newell. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Its So Nice When it Happens Good. Hurry Up and Wait.

Sunday, October 5, 2014. It was different working with stock this thin and small, and I learned a fair amount on resawing wood by hand. And that I'm horrible at making moldings and mitering them. But I'm not sure I'm cut out to be a box maker. Posted by Howard Newell. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Hurry Up and Wait. The Working Dilemma, Part II. Tea hype and the $10,000 yixing.

Hurry Up and Wait: October 2011

Hurry Up and Wait. The Life and Adventures of a book-loving, (slightly) workaholic, nerdtastic foodie. Thursday, October 27, 2011. Internalizing My Ancestral Puritanism. After an incredibly hectic, busy week in which my major event this semester went off well and was a moderate success (THANK GOD), I have today off. And to say I'm exhausted would be an understatement- I ache all over and could barely get my eyelids to open until after 1pm. But I felt guilty about it. My first vacation with Brian's family...

Hurry Up and Wait. The Life and Adventures of a book-loving, (slightly) workaholic, nerdtastic foodie. Saturday, May 26, 2012. On the eve of our departure from Florida, I've just been reflecting on what I'll miss about Florida (and what I WON'T). The grad students. We really had a phenomenal community of friends here, and I hope we'll be able to keep up with them for years to come. The winters. Sometimes I miss seasons, but the weather really is spectacular during the winter. Job application count: 8.
